Hall table decoration advice
I have this hall table and I’d like to make the area look better working around the table.
I know I need a new mirror but not sure if round or rectangular. Also not sure if white or more of a raw timber/cane look.
There are some cables underneath that I’d like to hide too, but it feels like a plant might not be the best approach.
Any advice on items to place on the table or underneath-to the sides of the table would be appreciatted to!
Thanks in advance
I’m thinking of one of these mirrors:
Also I need to have the routers there, not sure if it‘s worth trying to hide them 😅

Comments (22)I would paint your bookshelf the same colour as the walls and stuff it with, well, books! I would paint the built-in corner unit to match and just use it for potplants - ivy that hangs down would look good. As for the coffee table, if the room is small, what I did in our little family room was hunted around and found a large curved hunk of tempered glass from Freedom and it sort of 'floats' and looks invisible in some lights. Seriously, I think the line was called Ghost and was very reasonable (they also had a side table to match). Throw a bit of cherry red around and see how it looks with the creams and the taupes.

Comments (20)When you're looking to integrate a contemporary look within a period context, it's important to respect the integrity of the architecture - lighting pieces that marry old and new are the way to go. My favourite pendant in these settings would have to be the Jasper Morrison designed Glo Ball by FLOS. It is a classic piece that will stand the test of time and works well in both contemporary and period spaces. Here is one of my projects that includes the light in a contemporary home- Here is an image I've found (this is a project by NEXUS design), that displays the light in a more traditional setting-...See MoreEntry hallway decor
Comments (10)The hall table is easy on where to put it . Under the stairs . So you ( or family members ) can leave dirty or even security items , out of sight . Did you consider doing something in the hall -- an abstract painting or 2 ? It's a relatively new concept called colour , but some more courageous people are finding it looks slightly different to white , or white , or white , or even black . Haha . The one thing that shows some thought -- the ( almost certainly imitation ) wooden floor panels -- you know you need something when the most positive thing said is about the floor ! A painting on that large white wall can be bought probably as cheaply as painting or wallpapering that whole wall ( especially with the 'challenge' of having to continue upstairs , or making some kind of differentation -- basically two-toning the wall ) . You may even make money on a painting ( you probably won't ) ; you look a bit cultured ( although it hasn't worked for me , and I must have 50 ! ) ; and real easy to change if you get bored or even change your lounge suite , kitchen appliances , a rug or whatever is in surrounding rooms ....See MoreHall table white

2 years agoPut your router in a small cane basket on the console table. The wifi should still work.
Put two baskets under your table as shown in the photos that @Julie Herbert has posted. This will hide all the leads and PowerPoint.
Put the plant on top of the table. Add a round mirror and maybe a photo frame.

2 years agoHello,
I know you want to work around the table but I feel like its the table thats the issue here, it's just not doing what you need and covering around it will just look cluttered.
Something like the below would be much better for hiding wires and housing electronics and would therefore be much easier to style in the ways you need.
Your space looks quite contemporary so a round mirror would look wonderful, agree with the positioning it needs lowering.

2 years agoPut the routers in a decorative seagrass box with lid and a smaller one next to it so it gives it flow. Put a bigger plant (height wise) where existing is. Add a lowish bowl/tray to the middle add a catch all container near the plant.
Boxes for router
Bowl in centre for keys and big items
Taller plant
Drop off for smaller items like earrings, eyelashes,
